Aka, "vegetarian gets dragged to a steakhouse."

Watch out, that looks like a Caesar salad, which has anchovies in the dressing.

Most places are using bottled dressings shits just flavouring and thickeners.

I was shocked to realize that the cheesecake factory preps everything from scratch. They have a chef who just makes sauces and nothing else.

You can make or buy vegan/vegetarian dressings.

Or just not add anchovies, they don't add that much to the taste anyway

Beg to differ, they add so much umami, you could probably do something with seaweed though

Sodium glutamate and aroma compositions are there to help!
